About

The Environmental Services Department (ESD) was established by the San Diego City Council in 1988 to protect the environment and to provide all San Diego residents with properly disposed municipal solid waste, along with an environment free of litter and illegal dumping. The department's Collection Services Division has provided City refuse pickup for over 90 years and curbside recycling and yard waste collection for two decades. The department pursues waste reduction, recycling, composting, and environmentally-sound landfill management to meet the City of San Diego's long-term waste disposal needs. In addition, the Environmental Services Department oversees the City's management of energy, pursues innovative energy independence goals and works to advance more sustainable practices within the City organization and the community.
